between what they learn infoundational math and science courses and other multidisciplinary coursework (e.g., core coursesin writing, humanities, social sciences, etc.), and how to transfer and apply that knowledge toengineering courses, projects, and professional experiences [3].Despite accreditation criteria elevating contextual competence and other professional practiceoutcomes (e.g., effective communication, teamwork, ethics and leadership), as well as a plethoraof national studies calling for a different approach to engineering education, institutional andstructural issues continue to complicate curricular change [10], [2], [5]. One issue stems from alack of incentive for faculty collaboration across departments to develop consensus around

) following the passing of the Clean Air and the Clean Water Acts[3]. However, environmental engineering students often graduate with limited knowledge andinsights about the pathways that lead from scientific knowledge to policy, and the role of otheractors (constituents, industry, media, administrators), who can help or derail an effort to createpolicy consistent with the best scientific knowledge [4], [5], [6]. Gaps have also been identifiedregarding care-ethical responsibility of engineers toward the protection of human subjects,societal values and the environment [7].Regarding interaction with other actors, a gap exists in the area of communication with non-engineers and non-scientists. In a National Academy of Sciences study [8], researchers

the efficiency of transportation could allow good to be processed in less environmentally impactul places while still lowering the overall impacts.A. D. (2022) sees resource scarcity and social justice as two challenges related to his futurecareer. “Robots aren’t just metals. In fact, they contain a wide variety of materials in their construction. These materials come from many different sources and will vary in cost, environmental impact, and social values. When designing a robot, I will need to find a balance in the materials I am using between the three pillars of sustainability. I will need to ensure the robot is made from sustainable and ethically produced materials, while maintaining a certain

Still, we especially believe that the case studies of edge computing and machinelearning give direct connections to applying probability, analyzing and solving problems,conducting experiments, and designing a process in civil engineering contexts, all discussedabove.Environmental Engineering CurriculumFor emerging environmental engineers to meet the SDGs, students will need to: 1. Have hands-on laboratory experiments; 2. Analyze and interpret data from their experiments in more than one central environmental engineering focus area, e.g., air, water, land, and

As part of Module 8, studentswere specifically confronted with the need to become familiar with, incorporate, and respond tothe document, “Final Report of the NSPE Task Force on Overruling Engineering Judgement,”[14]. The successful training of students of engineering must include an awareness of, anappreciation for, and a thoughtful argument in support of licensure and credentialing as a criticalelement of protecting the health, safety
